birdgirl73 Reviewed by birdgirl73 on . $330 Million!!!! So for those of Americans you that dont know, the mega-millions lottery jackpot tonight is $330,000,000. I just picked up a few tickets myself, not really with the thought of winning but hey why not donate some money to public schools and gamble at the same time? Anyways I was just wondering, if you were to win this incredible amount of money what would you buy first? Id have to go with the Aston Martin DB9, fucking beautiful..... Rating: 5
